Workplace Coaching

Workplace coaching provides a platform for continuous learning and development. Read more

It creates conditions for setting higher standards of excellence across the organization. It also bridges the gap between current and desired performance levels. All this of course leads to the achievement of organization-wide goals and objectives. Which helps improve an organization’s bottom line. More and more, corporations are hiring life coaches to work with their staff. Specifically, they are hiring life coaches to motivate, inspire and improve work productivity. The idea is that highly motivated and productive employees will help boost the company’s bottom line.

Personalized Coaching

Often the one thing preventing us from achieving our desired objectives comes down to our behavior patterns. Read more

These are the decisions we make and the things we consistently do on a daily basis that shape our reality. These patterns of behavior are either taking us closer to our desired objectives, or they are pulling us away from what we want most. And if they are pulling us away from what we want most, then we are obviously doing and focusing on the wrong things. Therefore unless we make the necessary changes to these patterns, then unfortunately our goals will always remain out of reach. Life Coaching explores this behavior while paving the way forward for positive change.

Integration Workshops

The purpose of our Cultural Integration Course and Workshops is to enhance the integration of newcomers and families Read more

by providing education, outreach and support workshops. Cultural integration is a form of cultural exchange in which one group assumes the beliefs, practices and rituals of another group without sacrificing the characteristics of its own culture. During the first few days, weeks, or months, the visitor is usually happy to be in the new culture. Everything seems exciting and new, the people are interesting and the future looks brightAfter the first few days, weeks, or months, the newcomer may begin to feel like a fish out of water from constantly straining
to perform well in a foreign environment.

What our clients are saying

I have found my coaching with Larry to be extremely valuable for a number of reasons. The advice he has given has either dovetailed or reinforced what I am hearing internally about how I need to change my behaviours to change my role in my personal and business relationships. Larry has the ability to understand not just what will make you successful in business in general, but what will help you with your personal culture you are in right now. It was important to hear a voice that came without any political spin that I could trust and he has provided a flat wall that I can bounce ideas off with complete openness, with no judgement. Larry has showed content expertise,emotional intelligence, a willingness to connect, an honesty in assessment,and an ego-free launching pad.

Even being an experienced professional, sometimes living abroad is tough. Local support here in Vancouver, is important to help keep momentum toward long term goals. Fortunately I met Larry, who always shows himself an intelligent and skilled professional. I took the right decision to hire him as a coach and mentor. He has great ability to recognise, understand, and explain complex business/personal relationship issues, which have helped evolve my thinking, and most importantly, my actions. Larry did not hesitate to tactfully, but directly point out areas that needed to be considered a different way, and proved to be right with his observations, opinions, and suggestions. I name Larry as an important contributor to the success that I enjoy as a business professional today.

I have had the privilege of working with Larry at LaRose & Associates. Through the several meetings that we spent together in a professional environment, I have seen Larry flourish – as a professional trainer, coach and a decent human being. Larry is a successful risk-taker. He uses unique ways to determine what his target market needs and has the capability of tweaking his approaches accordingly. As a pragmatic leader and a realist, he can grasp ideas in a holistic manner and still pay attention to minor details. Larry is known as diligent and personable – two qualities that define him completely. As a creative thinker who possesses a can-do attitude, Larry is a pleasure to work with. I recommend him for any organization that chooses to take benefit from his diverse skills.

Larry LaRose was my manager at Clarica / Sun Life. I learned a great deal through him. Larry is not only an incredible manager, but a good person inside that allows you to trust and open-up. I have had managers that micro-manage and drive you to insanity, then there are the Larry LaRoses’ of the world that teach you how to succeed and flourish. I attribute a great deal of my personal sales accomplishments to Larry. What accomplishments? # 1 in Sales and Percent to Budget in US/Canada with Osteohealth Company. Thanks Larry!
